Passenger window stopped working today in the down position, my method of removing the door trim is take the 2 nuts off by the speaker and screw out behind ash tray, I then pull the leather section up and roll it back






I then wedge it with a piece of wood




And then undone the screws holding the fibreglass panel on with a right angled screw driver




Then release the rubber cover and the plastic cover and reach down inside and undo the hard to get to nuts or in my case impossible to get to nuts panel then pops off.




Put back together in reverse order


Works for me

Thanks for the photos.

Whereabouts are the 'hard to reach' (blimey, I sound like a social worker biggrin ) nuts?

The hardest one is the one in the middle of the door panel behind the window motor. Just above the number 708 in the photo

I put an extra screw in the fibreglass panel in the bottom corner which then pull that end in nice and tight and do away with the awkward hard to get to nut as it all pulls in nicely with no gap at all
